If you are doing a lot “right” but still feel wired at night or tired in the morning, this episode gives you a simple way to reset. Dr. A teaches a clear framework where your night routine has three jobs: set the clock, lower arousal, and protect your sleep cave. You will learn how light, screens, late meals, and nervous system activation can disrupt deeper sleep. You will also get practical tools that fit real life, including a wind-down rule, a quick brain dump to quiet mental loops, and bedroom upgrades that make sleep more restorative. In this episode, you’ll learn the 3 jobs of an evening routine: The 3 Jobs of an Evening Routine Set the Clock (light + meal timing + consistent cues) Lower Arousal (mind and nervous system downshift) Protect Your Sleep Cave (cool, dark, quiet, positioning) Coming up: How to stay consistent with nutrition, workouts, hydration, and sleep while traveling.
